Cannot send files via airdrop

Hey folks,
I've got some problems here with airdrop.
I just wanted to send a picture from my iPhone 6 to my "MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)". Unfortunately both have problems finding each other.
And when they do it "loads" for ages and then the picture doesn't even get copied to my macbook.
Does anyone have any ideas for what is causing it and how I can solve this problem.

To solve this I didn't need to change her to iCloud in my contacts, I had to change my settings in her phone!!
Thanks anil

E52: Cannot send files via bluetooth

Hi mates, I bought this smartphone 2 days ago and upgraded firware to version 052.003. Today for the first time I've tried to use the bluetooth connection to another phone (nokia 7210) and to the PC. The problem is that my new E52 cannot send files to other devices. I can send files from PC and from 7210 to E52 but not vice versa. In particular it seems that the bluetooth discovery doesn't work. When I try to add a new paired device the phone does not do anything. It does not say "looking for devices" or something like that (I'm italian, so I don't know what it should say).
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

And yes, it is.
And on the other computer you're trying to send to?
Have you tried deleting the following from ~/Library/Preferences/
com.apple.BluetoothExplorer.plist
com.apple.BluetoothFileExchange.plist
com.apple.BluetoothSetupAssistant.plist
and
com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
from /Library/Preferences/
and then restarting and re-pairing the devices?

Cannot send file via bluetooth from galaxy s5 to mac yosemite os x

Recently upgraded to Yosemite from Mavericks and now cannot receive any files via bluetooth
on my Galaxy S5. I can however receive files on my s5 from Yosemite.
Restarted mac with CMD+OPT+P+R, disconnected USB, waited 3 minutes on shutdown and reset bluetooth settings
but still no joy.
Please post any other solutions.
Your comments would be deeply appreciated.
cheers.

Tripper: Sorry for my delayed response (very sick dad in the hopsital). Also, sorry I answered the *wrong* question. To transfer files:
On each Mac OS X 10.5-based Mac, from the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Sharing.
Check (click) the "On" box next to Bluetooth Sharing.
Close the Sharing preferences window.
Select the file that you want to transfer.
Select "Send Using Bluetooth" from the Blackberry menu.
You will now receive a pop-up asking you to select a device. Select the paired computer you want to transfer the file to.
The file will start transferring. If you selected "Ask What to Do" in the Bluetooth prefs,you'll get a pop-up on the computer asking you if you want to accept or decline the file transfer.
That's it. Let me know if you still have problems.
Good luck,
Rene

Cannot send files via bluetooth from phone to PC

Dear All,
I am having a problem trying to send files from my E71 to a PC.
I can send files from my PC's (both Ubuntu & Windows) no problem but if I try to send a file from my E71 (i have tried both a pdf, picture & video) the phone just says "Sending failed".
I can browse the phone via blueetooth in both Ubuntu and Windows so i know the connectivity is there. Both Ubuntu and Windows have the options set to allow incoming file transfers.
Is this normal behaviour? Has anybody else experienced this problem or seen anything else about this?
COM

Hi Com,
which Bluetooth stack are you running under Windows?
I know that with the M$ stack, you explicitly need to right-click on the BT icon and choose "Receive a File". I have successfully used this before to get files from my E71.
Regards,
Dane
Proud E71-1 owner (yeah!)

Cannot send files via Bluetooth

My bluetooth used to work perfectly, but a couple of months ago a weird problem occured. People can send files to my computer normally, but i can't send anything via bluetooth.
I noticed that my sister has something like "OPEX file transfer" in the services-thingy but for me it says nothing. What's wrong?? Is there something i could do?

And yes, it is.
And on the other computer you're trying to send to?
Have you tried deleting the following from ~/Library/Preferences/
com.apple.BluetoothExplorer.plist
com.apple.BluetoothFileExchange.plist
com.apple.BluetoothSetupAssistant.plist
and
com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
from /Library/Preferences/
and then restarting and re-pairing the devices?

Sending files via File Adapter through FTP having a HTTP proxy as firewall

Dear experts,
I am having a issue trying to send a file via FTP with the File Adapter. My client has a HTTP proxy with authentification required as firewall in order to send files via FTP.
I've tried several solutions but I cannot find a way to add the proxy name, user and password in the communication channel.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Hi,
Unfortunately those changes didn't work. The adapter is not able to establish a connection within the FTP server. These are the parameters I added:
-Dhttp.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dhttp.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dhttp.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Dhttp.proxyPort=80
-Dhttp.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
-Dhttps.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dhttps.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dhttps.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Dhttps.proxyPort=80
-Dhttps.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
And just in case, we tried with these other parameters at the same time.
-Dftp.proxy.user=<usename>
-Dftp.proxy.password=<userpassword>
-Dftp.proxyHost=<proxy.domain...>
-Ddftp.proxyPort=80
-Dftp.nonProxyHost="*domain1.com domain2com"
The errors in the adapter engine's log are:
Error MP: Exception caught with cause com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: ConnectException: Socket connection timed out: <ftp ip address>
Error Exception caught by adapter framework: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: ConnectException: Socket connection timed out: <ftp ip address>
Error Delivery of the message to the application using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error when getting an FTP connection from connection pool: com.sap.aii.af.service.util.concurrent.ResourcePoolException: Unable to create new pooled resource: ConnectException: Socket connection timed out: <ftp ip address>
By the way, we are using PI 7.0.
Thanks in advance

Cannot send photos via bluetooth to Kodak printer machine

My iphone cannot find the machine and I was told that htis is an apple problem

Cannot send photos via bluetooth to Kodak printer machine.
Correct. iPhone doesn't support Bluetooth File Transfer protocol.
Many photo machines let you plug in a camera via USB, so do that instead. The iPhone will appear as a standard digital camera.

Cannot send file to XI ,and File Adapter Error in RWB- Adapter Monitor

i develop the file to file scenario, and everything in Integration Builder is right, and the configuration is no problem
but it cannot send file to XI, so the whole process
cannot start. The file adapter seems not work
how can i solve the problem?
Thank you for your reply

Hi Leo,
I Guess you should first see if the file is being picked... for that do the following.
While configuring your Sender File Adapter, let the mode be DELETE. This way, we will know if the file is being picked by the File adapter. The file will be deleted and you can be sure that it has been picked up.
In your runtime workbench home, there will be a tab, Component Monitoring, click on it. Select status as all, and click on display. The components will be displayed on ur screen. In that, under Integration Server, there will be a link for Adapter Engine. Click on it. Now, scroll down, and u will see a link to adapter monitoring, there under FILE ADAPTER see the log of the file adapter
and also, you can see the flow of your message in the integration engine in SXMB_MONI.
<b>Do this and let us know what is happening...</b>
Meanwhile i would also suggest you to go through the explanation of a simmilar scenario that i have explained below and compare it with what you have done..

G5 crashes when I try to send files via iCHAT

No idea whats causing it but when I try to send files via ichat it gets about 10mb in and then the machine crashes....
Don't think its to do with my broadband connection as this seems stable and am not running any other programs in the background.......Desparate to sort this -please help.

Hi Mart06,
Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
I can not find anything on the AIM site that suggests there is a Limit on file sizes.
The largest one I have tried myself was 9.2Mb
The closest thing I could find to the point in question was the last question on this page.
If the file is not stuffed so far you could try that to make it smaller.
I have AIM 4.7 for Mac and can not see any info in the Help there about any limit to the size of File Transfers.

How can I send files via Bluetook from my Tour to other phones?

How can I send files via Bluetook from my Tour to other phones?
I have even been able to pair to the other device, but I don't see the option to send/copy/move files through Bluetooth.
I can only send my Address book via bluetooth.
Please help!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
See this KB:
KB05409 Transfer a file using Bluetooth technology between two BlackBerry smartphones
Substitute, in the KB, the appropriate instructions for your other device in place of the KB section for the receiving device. Be aware that RIM only supports BT file transfer between BBs...with other devices is technically unsupported. But, it usually works, as long as the two devices are paired, trusted to each other, and each have all of the correct BT services enabled for the configuration of the other device.
Good luck and let us know!

Anyone know of a fix?
